DOWNTOWN HAMPTON UPGRADES PUBLIC PIERS
Hampton, Virginia, billed as "America's original downtown,"
recently
had its public, transient slips renovated by renowned, marina
constructor
Bellingham Marine. The company removed the existing piers and
installed its
world-class, Unifloat concrete floating docks.
The waterfront, located on the lower Chesapeake Bay, is now home to
26 double slips that provide berthing for transient pleasure boats up
to
110' in length. Bellingham also provided convenient dockside
accommodations, including 50-amp or twin 30-amp power pedestals, water
and a
pumpout facility.
The Hampton Public Piers is Virginia's first certified Clean
Marina,
indicating that it has developed an environmentally-friendly management
program. Visiting boaters can take advantage of a host of amenities,
such
as the nearby waterfront hotel with pool access, grocery store,
laundry,
drug store, specialty shops and two boat yards offering repair service.
Bellingham Marine produces Unifloat sal****er systems, Unideck
freshwater
systems and Unistack dry storage systems worldwide.
